Ahead of Pompey and Gillingham’s EFL Trophy match at Fratton Park, the most recent injury and team news will be presented.
team news for Pompey
Due to international call-ups and the absence of a Saturday league match, John Mousinho stated that there won’t be many changes for this match.
Terry Devlin, Paddy Lane, Regan Poole, and Alex Robertson have all received calls for overseas service and are unable to participate in this match.
We won’t have the luxury of rotating it entirely this week, according to Mousinho.
“Mainly because four of our players are absent due to international duty.
“Since then, we’ve also sustained a couple additional wounds.
“We’re going to rotate in some spots, but a lot of the players who played on Saturday will start on Tuesday,” the coach said.
On Monday afternoon, a decision about Kusini Yengi’s starting position will be made and then communicated to the team.
He played again last weekend after missing more than a month due to injury, and he might get some crucial first-team minutes in the match. The doctors at Pompey have given him the all-clear to begin.
Kusini Yengi is “a couple of days” ahead of Connor Ogilvie, who only started full-time training on Monday. He is likely to miss out and instead participate in additional practice sessions before a game.
Tom Lowery and Anthony Scully have been out for a while, and Marlon Pack has been ruled out for the upcoming several weeks.
Out are Terry Devlin, Marlon Pack, Anthony Scully, Connor Ogilvie, Paddy Lane, Regan Poole, and Alex Robertson.
